Memo to Sheep:

More bad news on George Bush's sewardship of the nation's economy:

This story is from Reuters in todays New York Times:

WASHINGTON, July 10 — The number of Americans claiming jobless benefits late last month hit its highest point in more than 20 years, the government said today in a report underscoring the persistent weakness of the nation's labor market.
The number of idled workers on the benefit rolls increased by 87,000 in the week ended June 28, to 3.82 million, the highest level since February 1983, the Labor Department said.

It also said first-time claims for unemployment insurance rose by 5,000 to a seasonally adjusted 439,000 last week from 434,000 a week earlier, surprising economists on Wall Street who had expected claims to decline. END


So there you have it. Once again the stench of failure permeates the Bush Administration! Though you have eyes you don't see. Though you have ears, you do not hear. If it wasn't for those stubborn facts, you could stay in Utopia! But alas, I will continue to shake you from your slumber.
